World of Wonders in the 7th Wonder

It wa a trip i can't resist. When Dom told me he was planning for a weekend trip to Batad I immediately said yes (without thinking). Not only did I join but I drag two of my colleagues as well to Batad. 

Thank God Edz and Madam Patel was game on this trip or I will not have someone to talked to and asked to take my picture! LoL.

It was an overnight trip, and as always it was a struggle for me to travel and sleep at the bus. But the morning after the trip this scenery welcomed us at the restaurant we're eating (for breakfast).


Hola Banawe!

Oriental breakfast for me and the girls


After an hour of breakfast, chitchat, photo-ops and what not, it's time to depart to Batad via a jeep that Dom rented out (it was included in the trip fee). Almost everybody want to ride at the top of the jeep but since it's already past 9:00AM and the sun is all up me and the girls decided it's better to ride inside the jeep. As Madam Patel would say "ayokong umitim!"

Kami na ang best in skin-care!

Micamyx, Dom, Alex.....


And the rest of the gang!


As like my first trip in the Cordillera last Holy week, the road are still a heart-thumping experience ride. There are some areas where it's a dirt road, one way only and with landslide on the side, but most of the road are paved naman in fairness.


Going to Batad is already an adventure while even riding a jeep


Rocky Road!



For almost an hour trip we need to disembarked from the comfort of our jeep and need to do the trek to Batad. It was an hour trek but with the view like this it's worth it diba?


The hills are alive with the sound of music..

Lovely, Energetic and Full of Energy Madam Patel and Edz


Finally. we arrive at Batad, first thing we did was list up our name in the tourist register station.

Maayos ang pila namin (may disiplina) jejeje


This way to our accomodation


And here's the view of our accomodation. Outstanding!!



More to come on trekking at Batad
